If you want a delicious, cheap, and traditonal Welsh breakfast in the Ponty area, you should definitely come here! This little café genuninely does the best fry-up in Wales. My fiancé and I go here all the time and have never once been disappointed. The vegetarian breakfast is wonderful, and there are a few different meat-based breakfasts to choose from as well. There are both Welsh- and English-style breakfasts, so you can choose whatever you fancy. The breakfast options are available all-day, too!

What a fantastic cafe. My partner and I have visited twice now and each time it's been superb. Clean tables, straightforward no nonsense menu and friendly staff. My partner ordered the Welsh breakfast with cockles and laverbread, I had the traditional. The bacon was cooked perfectly, nice thick cuts. Plenty of seating throughout although it does get busy, can absolutely see why with the food and service as it is. We will be regulars here. Well done staff!

Had a large breakfast today with a cup of tea, good size portion and struggled to finish it all. Quick service although it was quiet, nice clean environment and reasonably priced. Would recommend and will definitely return.
